Wasteful over-consumption (by some) in the developed countries and
the continuing, in some cases worsening, hunger of millions in the
Third World is a dramatic indication that food problems are urgent.
Anger is not enough and this book, which comes from the research
group on Development Policy and Practice in the Open University
(DPP), aims to provide some of the analytical tools needed for
serious action. Case studies to show ways in which food aid has
been used by donor countries for political ends; descriptions of
the relationships between markets and human needs; articles on the
problems associated with the feminization of poverty; pieces on
patterns and trends of food production; analysis of land reform; an
evaluation of the effects of biotechnology are all part of this
rich and lively collection of articles written specially for this
book.
